This blog features observations from Randy Turner, a former teacher, newspaper reporter and editor. Send news items or comments to rturner229@hotmail.com
In one article about Tim Jones tour, he said he was specifically seeking a member from Catholics to place on his committee to "study" Medicaid expansion. My question - why is he specifically calling for only ONE religious denomination representation?
Further, is this what happens when we allow mixing of church and State? Jones is Catholic so only his chosen denomination has the option to suggest an official representative for the committee, and even tho' protestants make up the majority of Missouri, there's no official seeking of a protestant representative? Baptist? etc etc etc
So the Party that claims to want to uphold the Constitution actually defies it?
